Chapter Three
"Are you sure you know where your going?" asked Inuyasha for the tenth time since they had entered a part of the forest he didn't know. "Yes I am sure," Sesshomaru said calmly. Then he and Inuyasha stopped. "I smell demon," said Inuyasha. Sesshomaru nodded. "And I sense a very large jewel shard," said Kagome. "And it is coming closer very fast," said Kagome. Sesshomaru shoved Rin into Shippo's arms. "Get far away and please keep her safe," he said to the young fox demon. Shippo nodded and looked to Kagome. After spending some much time with her he had began to think of her as his mother. She sent him a smiled and gestured for him to get away. He forced back tears and ran away with Rin who had began to cry. First all was quiet then a storm of demons came everyone jumped back and began fighting away. Kagome rode along with Sango on Kirara's back knowing she would need to save energy for Kikyo. "There's Kohaku," said Sango. "Kirara help Kagome and Miroku until Kagome has to go into action," she said as she jumped off. Kirara landed and began to help Miroku with his share of demons. Kagome helped as much as she could with a short sword her mother had also given her. She turned around just in time to see an arrow aimed at her head. She managed to dodge it but at the same time fell off of Kirara. The cat demon looked back at her. "Go help them I'll be fine," she told it as he stood up.
She looked around. Sesshomaru and Inuyasha were both busy with Naraku. Sango was doing her best to defeat Kohaku with minimal damage to her younger brother. Miroku and Kirara fended off all the demons. Both Sango and Miroku had already acquired some small injuries. The bothers looked fine so far. "You should have kept the demon she could have maybe prolonged your end," said Kikyo. Kagome turned around to her. "Why are you helping Naraku he is the one who caused you so much heart ache in the first place," she said. "Because he will give me Inuyasha and once I get rid of you and your silly feelings for him nothing will stop Naraku," she said. "He loves you. I don't understand why but he does," said Kagome. "Ha. Love is something I can't feel anymore. I only feel hatred for him and you and all of your friends. The only way to end this is to take him to hell with me," she said. Kagome glared at the priestess. "I won't let you take him even if I have to go down trying," said Kagome notching an arrow into the bow. Kikyo laughed. "You are nothing but a beginning miko and your skills with a bow are very doubtful," she said. Kagome just concentrated. That concentration wavered as a roar of pain was heard. Both Kikyo and Kagome looked over to the other battles. Both Sesshomaru and Inuyasha had bad injuries but Naraku had just taken a blow that looked deep and quiet painful. Sango had finally found some kind of way to defeat Kohaku and was now helping Miroku. Both had serious injuries. "Kikyo kill the girl now," Naraku yelled. Kikyo nodded and formed a ball of energy in her hands and threw it at Kagome. Kagome rolled out the way but still managed to get hit on the shoulder. "Kagome" yelled Inuyasha as he tried to race over to help but was stopped by Naraku who quickly engaged him back into battle. Somehow Sesshomaru had been knocked unconscious. "So you have a little more in you then I thought. Well lets see your best. I'll give you a free shot," said Kikyo taunting Kagome. Kagome stood ignoring the pain in her shoulder. 'She doesn't know of my new powers. She'll regret hurting Inuyasha and the rest of my friends too,' Kagome thought as she notched an arrow. "I'll give this my all," she said through gritted teeth. "Your all is probably just enough to give me a scratch," said Kikyo lowering her hands.
Kagome searched her new found knowledge as she focused her energy on the arrow. She found the perfect technique. "Take this Kikyo and die," she yelled as she let the arrow fly. The arrow hit Kikyo right in the heart. As soon as it touched it enveloped her in a bright light. "Noo. I will not go alone," she said as she sent an arrow at Kagome. Kagome jumped aside as quickly as she could but it wasn't fast enough. The arrow embedded itself in her shoulder that had been hit earlier. She cried out and fell the ground. Her knowledge told her that this arrow was not like the others. With the last of her strength she sent her power to Inuyasha. Inuyasha had heard Kikyo's scream and Kagome's cry. He knew he had to finished the battle soon but he was running out of energy. Then he felt the power Kagome had sent him. "Do it Inuyasha I know you can," was Kagome's voice from her power. "We all believe in you," said his mother's Izayoi's voice. "Make me proud as you already have," said Inutaishou. "I'll make all of you proud and claim what's truly mine," said Inuyasha as he turned to the now charging Naraku. "Go Tetsuasiga," he yelled and threw the fang sword which was now glowing with the borrowed power. It struck Naraku in the heart before he saw it coming. He let out a painful yell and was enveloped in light before he dissolved into dust which then dissolved into nothing leaving only a charred spot on the forest floor. Inuyasha quickly picked up the Tetsuasiga and sheathed it before running over to Kagome.
She was in a cold sweat. "Kagome. Kagome what's wrong wake up," he yelled shaking her slightly then he noticed the arrow. He went to grab it. "Stop," said Miroku who was now leaning on Sango and Kirara for support. Rin and Shippo were seeing to Sesshomaru and Kohaku. "Why it's causing her pain," he told him pain filling his eyes. "It has an enchantment on it," he said. "I'll use this sacra parchment to remove the spell then you'll be able to take it out," he said as he knelt down next to Kagome. He took out a slip and chanted over it before wrapping it around the arrow. Both the arrow and parchment glowed before the parchment feel off. "Ok it's safe," said Miroku. Inuyasha gently graphed the arrow and slightly pulled. Kagome cried out but Inuyasha continued to work the arrow free. Once it was out Kagome went back silent. Sango stood. "If someone helps me get her to a stream I'll clean her wounds and mine to prevent infection," she said. Inuyasha nodded. "Come on," he said gently picking her up. "You three make sure those too are ok," said Inuyasha. Shippo looked tired and sad but nodded and took a look at Kohaku while Rin attended Sesshomaru.
"You'll need to tell her soon," said Sango. Inuyasha didn't even have to ask what she meant he already knew. "I will when all of this is over. I promise," he said. Sango smiled and shooed Inuyasha away when he got her to the stream. "Kagome you have no idea how worried he is," said Sango talking to the still unconscious Kagome as she undressed her and cleaned the blood away. The flow had stopped. "We all have you to thank Kagome. We all forgot about what we needed most to help you some we could thank you. I forgot to help Kohaku even though I know he is ok. Miroku forgot about his wind tunnel to make sure Inuyasha didn't hurt himself when he tried to pull the arrow out. Shippo really sees you as his mother now. Your as good as Rin's aunt and Sesshomaru's sister. Please wake up soon Kagome," she said as she cleaned the last of the blood off. Then it hit her. Kagome's scar was very unusual. She quickly dressed her this time without the undershirt just the tonic and pants. "INUYASHA," she yelled. Inuyasha came and took Kagome quickly. "What is it," he asked as he quickly carried Kagome gently yet swiftly to the group. Sango was almost in hysterics. "The spell is killing her slowly," she said as she entered the clearing. "WHAT," everyone yelled. "I was cleaning her scar when I noticed how it wasn't red with infection but black with decay she said as she uncovered the scar. It looked like a black void. "We have to do something," Inuyasha said looking at Kagome. "Yes but what she doesn't have any power of her own yet and she gave the last of it to you so you could win," said Shippo. "My powers don't include spell releasing yet I'm not that advanced," said Rin. "How about we use the Shikon Jewel," said Sesshomaru. He had a sad look in his eyes like all the rest did it was just Inuyasha didn't expect to see it. "Yes that might work," said Inuyasha as he gathered the shards Kagome had and took the jewel from Sesshomaru.
He placed the shards together and the Shikon Jewel was once again whole. "Nothings happening," said Inuyasha. "Of course not the jewel was rumored to be something that grants wishes. True it gives power but that because of a different matter. The Shikon Jewel is what its name means a Jewel of Four Souls. One is that of a love. Two is that of friends. Three is that of Family. Four is that of ones self," said Kadae entering the clearing. Everyone took this in. "But when the jewel is put together it is simply a soul of one person. All along Kagome was fighting for her own soul it went through many years and many hands of good and evil but it was always meant to come back," she said. As she said this, the shikon jewel glowed and shot itself into is true owners body. "That is a sign that it is not too late to help Kagome," said Kadae. "Then we still don't know what to do," said Miroku. Inuyasha held Kagome tighter. "Inuyasha you can do it," said Sesshomaru. "What are you talking about?" Inuyasha asked in a small voice. Sango got it. "We all know demons can heal because of remarkable powers in their blood," she said. "So if you transfer some of your blood to her she may be able to heal," said Rin. "But isn't that dangerous what if Kagome's body rejects it?" asked Miroku. "Then they will both perish," said Kadae. Inuyasha thought about this carefully. That's when he noticed the metal taste of blood in his mouth. He didn't released that he had bit is lip. 'I will do it. If it works we'll be together on this side. If it doesn't well meet again on the other,' he thought. Carefully he used a claw to make a slight cut on Kagome's lip and lowered his onto hers. It was slow and sweet even with the taste of blood flowing into their mouths. Soon he pulled away the cuts soon stopped bleeding. "Now we must wait," said Kadae as they made their camp. Inuyasha held Kagome in his lap against a tree. He continued to stare at the shallow cut on her lip. His had long healed. He had refused the ramen Miroku had found in Kagome's bag and everyone got the hint that he wanted to be alone with Kagome. Inuyasha checked the scar many times and it seemed to stop getting worse. Kadae said it must be because of Inuyasha's blood. Her body was deciding either to accept of deny it. Shippo was the last to check on them when he brought Inuyasha Kagome's blanket to cover them up with. Inuyasha could still smell her sent. Soon he fell asleep wrapped in Kagome's essence.
Inuyasha and Kagome's dreams Kagome
Kagome found her self in a meadow much like that of the crossroad. "Where am I?" she wondered out loud. "You are in your subconscious," said a floating light with Sango's voice. Kagome looked at it then at the other two floating lights. "What are you?" she asked. "We are three of the four souls that make up the Jewel of Four Souls," said another with the voice of her mother. "We have all been brought back together in hopes of saving your life," said one with the voice of Inuyasha. "Why do you sound like people we know?" Kagome asked. "The four souls that make up the Shikon Jewel are those of family, friends, true love, and your own," said Miroku's voice this time from the first light. "I'm dead?" Kagome asked. "No but hanging on by a thread. We are hear together to ask you one question," said the second light now with her brothers voice. "What is it?" she asked. "Who do you love more then anyone in the world," asked Inuyasha's voice. "Inuyasha of course. I would do anything and everything in my power to be with him forever," she said with the up most sincerity and confidence. "Forever is a long time to love someone," said Inuyasha's voice. "That's what make me happy when I think that it could happen, but I know it can't for the fact that Inuyasha is hanyou and I'm just a mortal," she said sadly. "Is this truly what you would want?" asked Shippo's voice this time. Kagome nodded. "With no doubts?" said her grandfathers voice. Kagome nodded again. "Then we accept," said Inuyasha's voice. Kagome smiled as she felt something pulsing through her veins. Once again she blacked out Inuyasha
"We knew you could do it," said Izayoi from behind Inuyasha. "Mother," he said taking a step closer. She nodded and looked to the man with silver hair and gold eyes just like he and Sesshomaru. "Father," he said taking another step closer then he noticed something. "Where is Kagome?" he asked looking and sniffing wildly through the meadow. "We do not know but this the crossroads where you wait to see if Kagome's soul accepts or denies you," said Inutaishou. "I don't care if she accepts and we live or denies and we die as long as I can tell her how I feel," said Inuyasha. "And how is that my son?" asked Inutaishou. "I love her," he said simply. "More then you did Kikyo?" he mother asked. Inuyasha frowned. "Kikyo was Kagome is now. There is no comparison. I may of loved Kikyo then before I went to sleep and she died. But after Kagome awoke me I don't think I've ever felt the same no matter what I told my self," he said. They both smiled. "Then I'm sure you have nothing to worry about," said Izayoi. Inuyasha smiled back. "I miss you guys," he said. Izayoi ran forward and enveloped him in a hug. Inutaishou came and enveloped them both into a hug. "Take care of Kagome after all now that Naraku's gone you'll have forever together," he said. Inuyasha nodded as he felt himself being pulled back.
Inuyasha and Kagome
Kagome opened her eyes she was still in the meadow but she felt someway different. She had no way of knowing what had happened...except that she saw someone about two hundred feet away on the ground. She got up and stretched. Then she felt the light tug in her muscles that she'd never felt before. She began to run to where the person was. She then realized that she was running faster then she had ever run before. She soon saw the familiar red outfit. "Inuyasha," she yelled. Sure enough it was him just waking. He stood up and looked around before he found his self in a tight hold. He looked down to see Kagome but wait something was different. "Kagome your alive?" he asked. "I think so. This is my subconscious so I guess I am," she said. "Why are you looking at me funny?" she asked. "You mean you don't know?" he asked still searching her face. "Know what?" she asked. "Do you have a mirror?" he asked. She looked at him quizzically before pulling a mirror out of the little pouch that acted as a belt on her tonic. She then looked in it. First she noticed her eyes they were still the same color brown but now had flecks of gold in them. She then noticed something else. Two small sections of her bangs were now as sliver as Inuyasha's. She tilted the mirror up following the streaks. "Oh my gosh," she yelled then winched. Instinctively the two triangular ears on her head flattened. One was all sliver and the other was sliver with a spot of her natural black. The sliver streaks continued down the rest of her black hair. "I'm-," she stuttered unable to get the rest of it out. "You're hanyou," said Inuyasha looking away. "I know isn't it cool," she said twitching her ears this way then that. "If I knew that it would come out this way I wouldn't have done it," said Inuyasha. "Did what why?" asked Kagome putting the mirror away. "Kikyo's arrow," Inuyasha started but stopped when Kagome flinched. 'I'll get to that in a minute,' he thought to himself. "The arrow had a curse on it. It created a scar that began to decay your body. We thought the Shikon Jewel would cure it," he said. "But it didn't because it is my soul," said Kagome. Inuyasha nodded figuring that she probably figured that out. "So Sesshomaru had the idea that if I gave you some of my blood that you could heal," he said. "But that would have put both of us in danger if my body hadn't accepted it," said Kagome. Inuyasha nodded again. "Why would you put yourself in danger like that she asked as tear began to leak.
Inuyasha looked at her and grabbed her hands. "Because I love you Kagome," he said. Kagome looked at him. "You love me but what about Kikyo?" she asked. Inuyasha smiled. "I thought I loved Kikyo but I didn't. Yea before she pinned me to that tree and I slept for fifty years I loved her. But once you awoke me that love was lost. I just recently figured I loved you the whole time I just thought I still loved Kikyo," he said. Kagome began to cry on his chest. "I'm sorry if this makes you mad but this is how I feel," he said stroking her ears the way she did his. "I love you too," she said but her voice was muffled in is shirt. He graphed her shoulders and she winched in pain. He gently moved her back and pushed back the tonic to see the scar Kagome noticed it for the first time. "Is that where the arrow hit?" she asked as she moved a finger to touch it. And cried out in pain. "Yea don't touch it," said Inuyasha lower her into the ground to sit and kneeled next to her. He gently brushed the tonic away a bit more to see the damage. "It's healing," he said. "Because I love you too," she said. He looked down at her and smiled. "The four souls were that of my friends, family, true love, and myself. They asked me who I love the most in the world and I said you and told them how I wanted to be with you forever but knew it was impossible by you being hanyou and I being mortal so they accepted your blood and from what I can tell turned me into a hanyou from the make up in your blood," she said. "You did all that to be with me?" he asked. She nodded. "That's another reason why I love you," he said as he bent his head to kiss her. The first kiss was just a brush but then they deepened it.

"Father," he said taking another step closer then he noticed something. "Where is Kagome?" he asked looking and sniffing wildly through the meadow. "We do not know but this the crossroads where you wait to see if Kagome's soul accepts or denies you," said Inutaishou. "I don't care if she accepts and we live or denies and we die as long as I can tell her how I feel," said Inuyasha. "And how is that my son?" asked Inutaishou. "I love her," he said simply.

But after Kagome awoke me I don't think I've ever felt the same no matter what I told my self," he said. They both smiled. "Then I'm sure you have nothing to worry about," said Izayoi. Inuyasha smiled back. "I miss you guys," he said. Izayoi ran forward and enveloped him in a hug. Inutaishou came and enveloped them both into a hug. "Take care of Kagome after all now that Naraku's gone you'll have forever together," he said. Inuyasha nodded as he felt himself being pulled back.
Inuyasha and Kagome
Kagome opened her eyes she was still in the meadow but she felt someway different. She had no way of knowing what had happened...except that she saw someone about two hundred feet away on the ground. She got up and stretched. Then she felt the light tug in her muscles that she'd never felt before. She began to run to where the person was. She then realized that she was running faster then she had ever run before. She soon saw the familiar red outfit. "Inuyasha," she yelled. Sure enough it was him just waking. He stood up and looked around before he found his self in a tight hold. He looked down to see Kagome but wait something was different. "Kagome your alive?" he asked. "I think so. This is my subconscious so I guess I am," she said. "Why are you looking at me funny?" she asked. "You mean you don't know?" he asked still searching her face. "Know what?" she asked. "Do you have a mirror?" he asked. She looked at him quizzically before pulling a mirror out of the little pouch that acted as a belt on her tonic. She then looked in it. First she noticed her eyes they were still the same color brown but now had flecks of gold in them. She then noticed something else. Two small sections of her bangs were now as sliver as Inuyasha's. She tilted the mirror up following the streaks. "Oh my gosh," she yelled then winched. Instinctively the two triangular ears on her head flattened. One was all sliver and the other was sliver with a spot of her natural black. The sliver streaks continued down the rest of her black hair. "I'm-," she stuttered unable to get the rest of it out. "You're hanyou," said Inuyasha looking away. "I know isn't it cool," she said twitching her ears this way then that. "If I knew that it would come out this way I wouldn't have done it," said Inuyasha. "Did what why?" asked Kagome putting the mirror away. "Kikyo's arrow," Inuyasha started but stopped when Kagome flinched. 'I'll get to that in a minute,' he thought to himself. "The arrow had a curse on it. It created a scar that began to decay your body. We thought the Shikon Jewel would cure it," he said. "But it didn't because it is my soul," said Kagome. Inuyasha nodded figuring that she probably figured that out. "So Sesshomaru had the idea that if I gave you some of my blood that you could heal," he said. "But that would have put both of us in danger if my body hadn't accepted it," said Kagome. Inuyasha nodded again. "Why would you put yourself in danger like that she asked as tear began to leak.
Inuyasha looked at her and grabbed her hands. "Because I love you Kagome," he said. Kagome looked at him. "You love me but what about Kikyo?" she asked. Inuyasha smiled. "I thought I loved Kikyo but I didn't. Yea before she pinned me to that tree and I slept for fifty years I loved her. But once you awoke me that love was lost. I just recently figured I loved you the whole time I just thought I still loved Kikyo," he said. Kagome began to cry on his chest. "I'm sorry if this makes you mad but this is how I feel," he said stroking her ears the way she did his. "I love you too," she said but her voice was muffled in is shirt. He graphed her shoulders and she winched in pain. He gently moved her back and pushed back the tonic to see the scar Kagome noticed it for the first time. "Is that where the arrow hit?" she asked as she moved a finger to touch it. And cried out in pain. "Yea don't touch it," said Inuyasha lower her into the ground to sit and kneeled next to her. He gently brushed the tonic away a bit more to see the damage. "It's healing," he said. "Because I love you too," she said. He looked down at her and smiled. "The four souls were that of my friends, family, true love, and myself. They asked me who I love the most in the world and I said you and told them how I wanted to be with you forever but knew it was impossible by you being hanyou and I being mortal so they accepted your blood and from what I can tell turned me into a hanyou from the make up in your blood," she said. "You did all that to be with me?" he asked. She nodded. "That's another reason why I love you," he said as he bent his head to kiss her. The first kiss was just a brush but then they deepened it.
